In the evening, in the restaurant, You Miao sandwiched the food and said, "Qin Qing, accompany me back to my house after eating for a while." ”

Hearing this, Qin Qing was stunned for a moment, put down the wine glass on the side of his mouth, and said, "Why do you want me to accompany you home?"

You Miao ate the fragrant meal, didn't raise her head, and muttered, "Because my grandfather has something to discuss with you." ”

Qin Qing frowned slightly, couldn't figure out why, and asked softly, "Your grandfather, didn't say what was the matter?"

After You Miao was full, she patted her stomach, took a full distance, looked at Qin Qing and said, "No." ”

......

"Sugar gourd, delicious sugar gourd. ”

"Handmade jewelry, good quality and low price!"

"Come, take a look, the latest roast duck. ”

"It's not much different from my country. ”

Qin Qing thought in his heart.

Along the way, neither of them spoke, and just when they heard that there was roast duck, You Miao leaned over and asked, "I said, do you want to eat that piece of roast duck?"

Qin Qing shook his head and asked with a look of surprise, "Didn't we just have dinner?"

Hearing this, You Miao looked serious and said, "I'm asking you, I'm full. ”

After walking for a long time, You Miao bought a lot of daily necessities and some small items.

Qin Qing watched You Miao buy a lot of items and asked, "Brother You, why are you buying so many things?"

You Miao couldn't wait to beat Qin Qing violently, and said, "I said that you are still a nerd, of course you use it!"

Without waiting for Qin Qing to speak, You Miao continued: "Hmph, I want to go to the front to buy some things by myself, you can walk around first, and we'll see you in Baicao Pavilion later." ”

Qin Qing thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll see you in Baicao Pavilion that night." ”

...

After wandering around for a while, Qin Qing saw a shop and muttered, "Decay shop?"

Looking at the name of the store, Qin Qing smiled and said in his heart: "This shop is a bit interesting, go in and have a look." ”

Walking into the door of the store, Qin Qing saw all kinds of wood carvings on the shelves around the store. Surprisingly, each wood carving has a different momentum, some make people have a great sense of oppression, while others are not obvious.

There were no guys in the shop, just an old man in a white robe and blue rim lying on a chaise longue.

"Rotten wood can't be carved, but the wood carvings in this store are all carved from rotten wood, which is really powerful. Looking at the wood carvings around him, Qin Qing only had this one idea in his heart.

Suddenly, a spirit beast wood carving on the No. 1 container caught Ye Tong's attention, Ye Tong picked up the wood carving, and muttered, "Huh, saber-toothed tiger?"

This wood carving Qin Qing is very familiar, in the previous life he had met a saber-toothed tiger that had been molting eight times. It's just that this saber-toothed tiger is shrunk dozens of times, but although it is small, even every hair of the saber-toothed tiger is carved very realistically, which makes Qin Qing admire.

Qin Qing quietly released an internal force and integrated it into the wood carving.

At the moment when the internal force was integrated into the wood carving, Qin Qing suddenly felt that his palm was numb, and he instantly dropped the wood carving to the ground.

This kind of momentum is not something Qin Qing has ever seen.

"The saber-toothed tiger who entered the spiritual realm?"

Qin Qing only had this one thought in his mind, this saber-toothed tiger was at least in the spirit realm.

The old man appeared behind Qin Qing at some point, and said, "Yes, I can actually see that this is a saber-toothed tiger that has entered the spiritual realm." What, you're interested in carving?"

As he spoke, the old man picked up the wood carving, put it back on the container, and said, "Don't casually integrate the internal force into the wood carving that is higher than your realm." At least not in this store. ”

Qin Qing was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

The old man lay down on the chaise longue again and replied, "Why should I tell you that you are my apprentice?"

Qin Qing asked in a low voice, "Rotten wood, can it also be carved into wood carving?"

Within the scope of Qin Qing's memory, it is impossible for rotten wood to be used for carving.

The old man didn't answer Qin Qing, and asked instead, "Have you ever seen a ghost?"

Qin Qing couldn't understand why the old man said this, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Although Qin Qing had been to the Netherworld Mansion, he had not seen a single ghost. And even if this world is a world of cultivation, for this kind of old man in the world, ghosts and gods are just legendary things.

Everything seemed to be in the old man's imagination, and then the old man asked, "I haven't seen ghosts, so do ghosts exist?"

Qin Qing replied without thinking, "Existence." ”

After a person dies, the soul will return to hell and enter the six realms of reincarnation, this is a theorem, so it is said that ghosts exist, but Qin Qing has not seen it.

The old man stroked his beard and said to Qin Qing in a serious tone: "That's right, you haven't seen ghosts, but you know the existence of ghosts." And now you see a wood carving made of rotten wood, but you still wonder whether rotten wood can be carved, don't you think there is a contradiction?"

After speaking, the old man did not forget to persuade Qin Qing and said, "So, young man, learn carving." ”

Qin Qing didn't seem to hear it, still thinking about what the old man said before, and muttered in his mouth: "Could it be that what exists must be true?" So, the saber-toothed tiger in my mind is an image that I have seen and formed in my mind, can I also carve it out?"

Thinking about it, Qin Qing saw the wood and carving knives used for carvings on other containers, the wood was not rotten wood, Qin Qing took it, closed his eyes, and began to carve the image of the saber-toothed tiger in his mind.

The sound of the voice sounded, Qin Qing's left hand held the carved wood, the right hand held the carving knife, and the right hand grabbed the handle of the knife, waving it constantly. With Qin Qing's carving, sawdust kept falling, and these Qin Qing didn't perceive it, at this time he was completely immersed in carving the eightfold saber-toothed tiger that had shed dust.

A quarter of an hour later, the general outline of a saber-toothed tiger had been carved.

Half an hour later, the body of the saber-toothed tiger had been carved.

An hour later, the saber-toothed tiger's head was also carved.

In the last step, the finishing touch, Qin Qing carved out the eyes of the saber-toothed tiger, and in the last sword, the eyes of the saber-toothed tiger shone brightly, giving people a kind of momentum oppression.

"Poof!" When the saber-toothed tiger finished carving, Qin Qing spurted out a mouthful of blood, but he was not injured. Just a simple spit of blood.

And at the moment when Qin Qing spat out blood, the momentum of the saber-toothed tiger that was eight times the dust also disappeared.

At this hour, the old man Qin Qing did was in his eyes, and when Qin Qing spit out a mouthful of blood, he seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and said with a smile: "Not bad, the carving is good." ”

The old man walked over, took the wood carving of the saber-toothed tiger from Qin Qing's hand, and asked, "Do you know why you vomit blood?"

Qin Qing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "The kid is dull, please ask the seniors for advice." ”

The old man injected a force of his own, reactivated the saber-toothed tiger, and said, "Because your momentum is insufficient, to carve a work with momentum, you must first require the carver to have momentum." You are just a warrior who has lost the dust of the fivefold, but the saber-toothed tiger you carved is the eightfold of the dust, and your potential is not as good as it, and there is only one result, which is what happened to you just now. Fortunately, you just carved a demon beast that has been transformed into the dust eightfold, if it is the eightfold spirit of the soul, I'm afraid you will be unconscious by now. ”

Qin Qing thought carefully, bowed down and said, "So that's the case, the kid has been taught." ”

The old man waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I haven't had a person in this shop for eight hundred years, and finally there is an interesting little guy like you, how can I not point you out, I said, do you want to learn carving?"

This old man gave Qin Qing a sense of danger, so Qin Qing hurriedly said: "Senior, the kid just wants to achieve something on the way to cultivation, and doesn't ask for other side studies. The reason why I entered the store was because of the attraction of the name. This silver tael is just carved with the material money used, farewell. ”

Hearing Qin Qing say that carving is a side study, the old man was immediately unhappy, and said angrily: "You little doll, just don't open your mind, is carving a side study? ”

In fact, Qin Qing didn't want to learn carving, after all, there was such a master who could definitely walk sideways in the future, but the origin and purpose of the other party were not clear. So I had to excuse myself.

Qin Qing walked around and asked, "Senior, I want to ask you, why are you willing to stay here because your carving skills are unparalleled in the world, and you are a peerless powerhouse?"

When the old man heard this, he smiled and said, "I'm old, I just want to find a disciple to inherit my mantle, and I have nothing else to ask for." ”

Hearing this, Qin Qing asked, "Senior, if you give up the pursuit of martial arts just because you are old, then where are the immortals in the world?"

The old man's eyes were gloomy, and he said, "Becoming an immortal and becoming a god, that kind of thing is not what I want to have." ”

When Qin Qing heard this, looking at the old man's expression, he knew that something must have happened to the old man before, so he said: "What if you are old, if you are not crazy when you are old, when will you wait?"

It was such a simple sentence, Qin Qing aroused the desire in the old man's heart, the old man's eyes let out a fine light, and said: "Yes, if you are not crazy when you are old, do you wait to die." ”

Seeing that the old man cheered up, Qin Qing continued: "Yes, so, senior, I think you have to pursue much more than just these in the house. ”

The old man became more and more excited, and said excitedly: "Yes, these are not what I pursue, what I pursue is the peak of martial arts." Hehe, but until then, I'm going to take you as an apprentice. ”

Qin Qing saw that this old man still had the idea of accepting himself as an apprentice, and said, "Senior, I think it's better for people to be leisurely, and don't be too crazy when you're old." ”

The old man was in a good mood, "Hahaha!"
